It was a blast being part of this tour. My wife and I are on our 1 year anniversary, and it was a perfect activity to do. Our tour guide was Julia. Absolutely wonderful. I can tell she loves doing what she does. Would love to do it again.

We had such a great group of people! Everybody had an open mind, and we all loved history. It was really interesting to learn more about Blackbeard in a different way. We learned some new stuff and loved it!
